A Clash of Kings: The Illustrated Edition (A Song of Ice and Fire Illustrated Edition Book 2) Kindle Edition
鶹
Continuing the celebration of the twentieth anniversary of George R. R. Martin’s landmark series, this gorgeously illustrated special edition of A Clash of Kings features over twenty all-new illustrations from Lauren K. Cannon, bringing glorious new life to this modern classic.
A CLASH OF KINGS
A SONG OF ICE AND FIRE: BOOK TWO
With a special foreword by Bernard Cornwell
Time is out of joint. The summer of peace and plenty, ten years long, is drawing to a close, and the harsh, chill winter approaches like an angry beast. Two great leaders—Lord Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon—who held sway over an age of enforced peace are dead . . . victims of royal treachery. Now, from the ancient citadel of Dragonstone to the forbidding shores of Winterfell, chaos reigns, as pretenders to the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms prepare to stake their claims through tempest, turmoil, and war.
As a prophecy of doom cuts across the sky—a comet the color of blood and flame—six factions struggle for control of a divided land. Eddard’s son Robb has declared himself King in the North. In the south, Joffrey, the heir apparent, rules in name only, victim of the scheming courtiers who teem over King’s Landing. Robert’s two brothers each seek their own dominion, while a disfavored house turns once more to conquest. And a continent away, an exiled queen, the Mother of Dragons, risks everything to lead her precious brood across a hard hot desert to win back the crown that is rightfully hers.
Against a backdrop of incest and fratricide, alchemy and murder, the price of glory may be measured in blood. And the spoils of victory may just go to the men and women possessed of the coldest steel . . . and the coldest hearts. For when rulers clash, all of the land feels the tremors.

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
At Winterfell they had called her "Arya Horseface" and she'd thoughtnothing could be worse, but that was before the orphan boy Lommy Greenhands hadnamed her "Lumpyhead."
Her head felt lumpy when she touched it. When Yoren had dragged herinto that alley she'd thought he meant to kill her, but the sour old man had
only held her tight, sawing through her mats and tangles with his dagger. Sheremembered how the breeze sent the fistfuls of dirty brown hair skitteringacross the paving stones, toward the sept where her father had died. "I'mtaking men and boys from the city," Yoren growled as the sharp steel scraped
at her head. "Now you hold still, boy." By the time he hadfinished, her scalp was nothing but tufts and stubble.
Afterward he told her that from there to Winterfell she'd be Arry theorphan boy. "Gate shouldn't be hard, but the road's another matter. You got along way to go in bad company. I got thirty this time, men and boys all boundfor the Wall, and don't be thinking they're like that bastard brother o'yours." He shook her. "Lord Eddard gave me pick o' the dungeons, and I didn'tfind no little lordlings down there. This lot, half o' them would turn you overto the queen quick as spit for a pardon and maybe a few silvers. The otherhalf'd do the same, only they'd rape you first. So you keep to yourself andmake your water in the woods,alone. That'll be the hardest part, the pissing, so don't drink no more'n youneed."
Leaving King's Landing was easy, just like he'd said. The Lannister guardsmen on the gate were stopping everyone, but Yoren called one by name and their wagons were waved through. No one spared Arya a glance. They were looking for a highborn girl, daughter of the King's Hand, not for a skinny boy with his hair chopped off. Arya never looked back. She wished the Rush would rise and wash the whole city away, Flea Bottom and the Red Keep and the Great Sept andeverything, and everyone too, especially Prince Joffrey andhis mother. But she knew it wouldn't, and anyhow Sansa was still in the city
and would wash away too. When she remembered that, Arya decided to wish forWinterfell instead.
Yoren was wrong about the pissing, though. That wasn't the hardest part at all; Lommy Greenhands and Hot Pie were the hardest part. Orphan boys. Yoren hadplucked some from the streets with promises of food for their bellies and shoesfor their feet. The rest he'd found in chains. "The Watch needs good men," hetold them as they set out, "but you lot will have to do."
Yoren had taken grown men from the dungeons as well, thieves and poachers and rapers and the like. The worst were the three he'd found in the black cells who must have scared even him, because he kept them fettered hand and foot in the back of a wagon, and vowed they'd stay in irons all the way to the Wall. Onehad no nose, only the hole in his face where it had been cut off, and the grossfat bald one with the pointed teeth and theweeping sores on his cheeks had eyes like nothing human.
They took five wagons out of King's Landing, laden with supplies for the Wall: hides and bolts of cloth, bars of pig iron, a cage of ravens, books and paper and ink, a bale of sourleaf, jars of oil, and chests of medicine and spices. Teams of plow horses pulled the wagons, and Yoren had bought two coursers and a half-dozen donkeys for the boys. Arya would have preferred a real horse, but the donkey was better than riding on a wagon.
The men paid her no mind, but she was not so lucky with the boys. She was two years younger than the youngest orphan, not to mention smaller and skinnier,and Lommy and Hot Pie took her silence to mean she was scared, or stupid, or
deaf. "Look at that sword Lumpyhead's got there," Lommy said one morning asthey made their plodding way past orchards and wheat fields. He'd been a dyer'sapprentice before he was caught stealing, and his arms were mottled green to
the elbow. When he laughed he brayed like the donkeys they were riding."Where's a gutter rat like Lumpyhead get him a sword?"
Arya chewed her lip sullenly. She could see the back of Yoren's faded blackcloak up ahead of the wagons, but she was determined not to go crying to him
for help.
"Maybe he's a little squire," Hot Pie put in. His mother had been a bakerbefore she died, and he'd pushed her cart through the streets all day, shouting"Hot pies! Hot pies!" "Some lordy lord's little squire boy, that'sit."
"He ain't no squire, look at him. I bet that's not even areal sword. I bet it's just some play sword made of tin."
Arya hated them making fun of Needle. "It's castle-forged steel, you stupid," she snapped, turning in the saddle to glare at them, "and you better shut your mouth."
The orphan boys hooted. "Where'd you get a blade like that, Lumpyface?" HotPie wanted to know.
"Lumpyhead," corrected Lommy. "He prob'ly stole it."
"I did not!" she shouted. Jon Snow had given her Needle. Maybe shehad to let them call her Lumpyhead, but she wasn't going to let them call Jon athief.
"If he stole it, we could take it off him," said Hot Pie. "It's not his
anyhow. I could use me a sword like that."
Lommy egged him on. "Go on, take it off him, I dare you."
Hot Pie kicked his donkey, riding closer. "Hey, Lumpyface, you gimme thatsword." His hair was the color of straw, his fat face all sunburnt andpeeling. "You don't know how to use it."
Yes I do, Arya could have said. I killed a boy, a fat boy likeyou, I stabbed him in the belly and he died, and I'll kill you too if you don'tlet me alone. Only she did not dare. Yoren didn't know about thestableboy, but she was afraid of what he might do if he found out. Arya waspretty sure that some of the other men were killers too, the three in themanacles for sure, but the queen wasn't looking for them, so itwasn't the same.
"Look at him," brayed Lommy Greenhands. "I bet he's going to cry now. Youwant to cry, Lumpyhead?"
She had cried in her sleep the night before, dreaming of herfather. Come morning, she'd woken red-eyed and dry, and could not have shedanother tear if her life had hung on it.

Reviewed in Canada on January 14, 2020Verified PurchaseJ'ai hate de voir les prochain tomes.
- Reviewed in Canada on December 1, 2019Verified PurchaseExcellent
- Reviewed in Canada on November 12, 2019Verified PurchaseStill a great and beautiful book... but the quality/quantity is disappointing.
It's a pleasure to start every chapter with an illustration, but you get that every 3 to 5 chapters with the second books. And the colored ones, are not new ones placed in the good chapters like the 1st book, they are the same b&w pictures (that we already have in fewer quantity) stacked together "somewhere in the book'..
Disappointing. I won't be buying any other of this edition before reading the critics!!
- Reviewed in Canada on July 11, 2024Verified PurchaseDescribed as new. Not in plastic, hardcover scuffed both sides. Not new as described.
- Reviewed in Canada on January 27, 2020Verified PurchaseVery cheap printing job. The binding is poor and I expect it will start falling apart before too many readings. The A Game of Thrones illustrated book was made in the USA and everything about the binding is better. This is a big disappointed for price paid. Hopefully George will take care of this problem and insist the next illustrated book be printed by the same people that did the first book. I also agree that the grouping of the pictures is just plain weird. Maybe that was a miscommunication with the Chinese printers? The story itself is fantastic.
- Reviewed in Canada on November 4, 2020I’ve read all the books and when I saw the Game of Thrones illustrated edition and decided to start collecting them as these are books I will read over and over again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Piccola delusione

4.0 out of 5 stars BUENA NOVELA, EDICIÓN ILUSTRADA SÍ, PERO DEJA QUE DESEAR
Verified PurchaseEs una buena novela, le pongo 4 estrellas porque aunque es cierto que está ilustrada, son poquitas las ilustraciones que aparecen en la misma. No creo que el pequeño número de ellas que hay aporte un valor sustancial adicional a la novela sin ilustrar. Es cierto que la calidad de las ilustraciones sí es buena.
